Now in its landmark 10th year, the Africa Summit organised by the African Leadership Magazine has become the continent’s most influential platform for bold ideas, game-changing partnerships, and real-world impact. From driving strategic investments to powering innovation, the Summit convenes global visionaries to accelerate Africa’s rise as a global economic force.Chaired by H.E. Jakaya Kikwete, former President of Tanzania and Chair of the ALM Global Advisory Board, the 2025 edition will welcome over 300 high-calibre leaders — including Heads of State, business giants, policy architects, and global investors — for two power-packed days of insight and action at The Landmark London and the UK House of Lords (9–10 July).
Under the theme “Africa Forward: Powering Leadership, Investments, and Competitiveness”, the Summit will spotlight the continent’s transformation into a global growth frontier. With Africa projected to be the world’s second-fastest-growing region— and 24 nations exceeding 5% GDP growth, according to available data — the momentum is undeniable. From the rise of AfCFTA to the surge in FDI, Africa is fast reshaping its narrative—steering away from commodity dependency and into high-value sectors through trade, innovation, and industrial expansion.The Summit dives deep into these drivers of progress, offering a front-row seat to the partnerships, policies, and leadership fuelling the continent’s next leap. This is more than a conference. It’s a catalyst. A strategic hub where deals are brokered, alliances are formed, and Africa’s future is forged.
